THE SHOOTING STARS
The highly anticipated matchup Celtics Vs Knicks kicked off the NBA season with a bang, but instead of a closely contested game, it turned into a showcase of Boston’s dominance. The Celtics overwhelmed the Knicks with a decisive 132-109 victory, highlighted by their incredible 3-point shooting performance that tied the NBA record for most 3-pointers in a game.
Record-Tying 3-Point Performance
In the Celtics vs. Knicks game, Boston lit up from beyond the arc, sinking 29 3-pointers and tying the record set by the Milwaukee Bucks in 2020.
Early in the fourth quarter, Al Horford’s 3-pointer pushed the Celtics to match this impressive record.
Although they fell short of breaking it—missing their last 13 attempts from downtown—the energy in TD Garden remained electric, with fans chanting “One more 3!” cheering the team.
Celtics Vs Knicks : Jayson Tatum Shines
Jayson Tatum led the charge for the Celtics with a dazzling performance, scoring 37 points and contributing eight of Boston’s record-tying 3-pointers.
His dominant play set the tone for the night, showcasing his ability to elevate his game when it mattered most.
Alongside him, Derrick White added 24 points while Jaylen Brown chipped in with 23. Tatum also displayed his playmaking skills, dishing out 10 assists as Boston cruised to a comfortable win.
Celtics Vs Knicks : Knicks Struggle to Keep Up
On the other side of the court during the Celtics vs. Knicks matchup, New York struggled to keep pace with Boston’s explosive offense.
Despite Jalen Brunson’s solid performance with 22 points, the Knicks couldn’t find their rhythm.
New additions Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges were expected to elevate the team’s performance, but Towns managed only 12 points and seven rebounds in his debut, leaving fans wanting more from the revamped New York lineup.
Celtics Set the Pace for the Season
The Celtics vs. Knicks season opener was supposed to be a measuring stick for New York’s new roster but instead highlighted the gap between these two teams.
Boston quickly built a commanding 19-point lead by halftime, going an impressive 10-for-16 from beyond the arc in just the first quarter.
The Celtics shot 50% from the field overall, outscoring the Knicks by an astonishing 54 points from three-point range.
Looking Ahead for Celtics and Knicks
As Boston celebrated their record-tying performance, they eagerly looked forward to facing Washington in their next game.
Meanwhile, the Knicks aimed to bounce back from this tough loss as they prepared to host Indiana in their home opener on Friday.
While it’s still early in the season, this Celtics vs. Knicks opener may have set a challenging tone for New York if they can’t find a way to compete with some of the league’s best teams.
As both teams move forward, fans are left wondering how each will adapt and respond in what promises to be an exciting NBA season ahead.
The Celtics have established themselves as strong contenders, while the Knicks will need to regroup quickly if they hope to make an impact this year.
